So, who's done this one before? Judith and I are thinking about joining you guys, but I guess I have some logistic concerns. I drove up there after work yesterday to see this hill for myself. It's not horrible, certainly not as a hike, but with a steel 95 tank and 28lbs of lead wearing a wetsuit?! Do you usually completely gear up in the parking lot and hike down ready to jump in the water, or do you partially gear up and make final preparations after you gone down the trail? It seems to me at the very least you'd want to wear better shoes for the hike than your dive boots. And where do you usually enter the water, right there by the end of the trail or further west up the beach, at those rocks?
I think I want to do this one, but I want to make sure I'm prepared, both mentally and logistically! Someone give me a pep-talk!

Hehe Well im not going to make this one. Im going to try and rally some people up this way to dive malibu. As for you asking those questions. I usualy Gear up all but hood and Gloves at the car Slap on my Al63 and 20lbs and Would hike down the trail. Im sure you can do it partialy geared up and then finish at the bottom. Its all personal Prefrence.
